Buhawi Hills
About
Rolling green ridges above a braided river valley! Buhawi Hills in Pio Duran is a grassy eco-trek with knife-edge ridgelines, a river snaking far below and mountains stacked to the horizon. The climb takes a few hours with a registered local guide, and the 360-degree view at the top is the payoff. Start at sunrise for the best light and cooler air!
Go before 2 PM today. Rain likely after.
